The Pro Trader’s Guide to Fair Value Gaps

Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) have become one of the most powerful tools for traders who want to understand the true intentions of institutional order flow.

In the framework used by Plazo Sullivan, FVGs are treated as evidence of institutional displacement—and therefore prime zones for high-probability entries.

Where Fair Value Gaps Come From

Professionals view this as unfinished business, and institutions often return to these zones to complete the auction process.

Why FVGs Matter

FVGs expose where large players entered the market with force.

How to Trade Fair Value Gaps
1. Identify the Displacement

Before an FVG matters, there must be displacement—strong, directional movement marked by high volume or momentum.

2. Mark the Gap

Highlight the zone between the prior candle’s high and the next candle’s low (or vice versa).

Patience Creates Precision

Institutions use these pullbacks to reload positions at favorable pricing.

Bias Before Execution

Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital’s bias framework—weekly, daily, liquidity mapping—acts as the filter that upgrades an FVG from “possible” to “high-probability.”

Imbalances Work Both Ways

Just as price gravitates back to FVGs for entries, it also moves toward FVGs when they act as future magnets.

Why FVG Trading Works

Fair Value Gaps give traders a rare glimpse into algorithmic intent.

Combine FVG logic with market here structure, liquidity pools, and volume confirmation, and you have one of the strongest frameworks available to retail traders today—one that aligns perfectly with the advanced methodologies taught inside Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital.

FVGs aren’t signals—they’re context.
And once you learn their language, the market starts to speak back.
